Abstract

MONTOYA, Imanol et al. Small area estimation of health indicators based on data from the Basque Country Health Survey. Gac Sanit [online]. 2019, vol.33, n.3, pp.289-292.  Epub Nov 25, 2019. ISSN 0213-9111.  https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.gaceta.2018.04.016.

Health surveys are a key tool for decision-making in health policies and health services planning. The use of small-area statistical methods that use information at different geographic levels may be useful for estimating health indicators at a lower geographical level than originally considered in the survey design.

Keywords : Small area analysis; Health survey; Spatial statistics.
